PRINCE Harry had a very emotional conversation with one little boy in New Zealand.

Prince Harry melted hearts on royal tour when he stopped to have a very emotional chat with a little boy who had lost his mother.

As he greeted members of the public alongside wife Meghan Markle in New Zealand on Tuesday, the Duke of Sussex was stopped by a six year old called Otia Nante, who gave him a letter detailing how his mother had sadly died when he was just one year old.

Looking visibly touched by the gesture, Prince Harry – who publicly dealt with the death of his own mother, Princess Diana, aged 12 – paused to have a chat with Otia and his grandmother.

"He really looks up to you because he lost his mother too," the little boy's nan said.

It’s been a busy few weeks for the royals, after 76 engagements, four countries and a huge amount of travelling – with the pair announcing they were expecting at the start of the tour.

The pair haven’t stopped discussing the incredible news throughout the tour, with Harry previously offering a personal message when they arrived in New Zealand via helicopter.

He said: “From myself, my wife and our little bump, we are so grateful to be here.

"We bring blessings from my grandmother the Queen and our family.

“We are so grateful for your hospitality and the work to look after this beautiful place.”

At the opening ceremony for the Invictus Games, he added: “I have been so proud to be able to introduce my wife to you, and we have been so happy to be able to celebrate the personal joy of our newest addition with you all.”
